The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

Liu Che: “…”

Watching the people on the sky discussing him, saying that he had a chance to be listed among the wise rulers, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

What does it mean to have a good son and a good great-grandson?

"Does this mean that without these things, I wouldn't be a good emperor?"

"Without them, do you think you can be a good emperor? If your son had been a tyrant, the Han Dynasty might very well have perished."

Old Zhu was straightforward and didn't give him any face.

He acknowledged Emperor Wu's achievements, but did not admit that he was a good emperor.

Under his rule, the people suffered terribly!

In his later years, he was forced to issue an edict of self-reproach!

"If you insist on saying it that way, there's no problem with it. It was indeed an extreme example of militarism. If it weren't for Emperor Zhaoxuan's intervention, it's hard to say whether the Han Dynasty could have lasted for so many years."

Li Er stepped forward at the opportune moment and spoke a fair word.

He does not deny Liu Che's achievements, but these achievements come at a price.

If it weren't for the fortuitous coincidence of being sandwiched between the reigns of Emperors Wen and Jing, and Emperors Zhao and Xuan, the foundation of most dynasties wouldn't have been sufficient for Emperor Wu to go through such turmoil.

"Wait, what are you talking about? I don't understand. You're about to bring about the downfall of your country, how can you call yourself a wise ruler?"

Liu Bang was completely bewildered.

When did the terms "wise ruler" and "nearly lost country" become synonymous?

Is the world too chaotic, or is your father out of touch with the times?

"Your vision is narrow. If I had to say something, I myself almost lost my country, so what?"

Ying Zheng, on the contrary, was more likely to accept this position than him.

"Ah? The First Emperor? You also nearly lost your country?"

Liu Bang was taken aback.

Don't be fooled by his uprising after slaying the white snake, which led to the downfall of Qin and the destruction of

But he still respected Ying Zheng.

After all, he was the First Emperor. If he hadn't swept across the six kingdoms, the people of the world probably wouldn't even know what a unified empire was.

He also couldn't quite understand why the First Emperor would say such a thing.

"The Qin Dynasty has many accumulated problems, and there are even many problems that I cannot handle. Once these problems erupt, it will lead to the destruction of the country."

"That's why I hope Fusu can learn some Confucianism and become a gentle and conservative ruler. Perhaps he can do a better job than I can."

Ying Zheng spoke the truth.

Although he lacked the perspective of later generations, he could not see the history books of his own Qin Dynasty.

But how could he not know the problems in his own country?

It's just that he can't solve it, or rather, the biggest problem is not something that can be solved in one or two generations.

He could only hope that the emperors who would succeed him in the future would be wise rulers.

Only in this way can we have a chance to solve the problems of the Qin Dynasty.

"I understand. So Liu Che was the same way?"

Liu Bang nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.

He did have some understanding of the situation in the Qin Dynasty.

"I guess so. It's all about being too eager for quick success and instant benefits, trying to accomplish in one generation what would have taken several generations."

Li Er nodded.

Whether it was Ying Zheng or Liu Che, they were both like that.

They harbored grand ambitions and hoped that their generation would accomplish everything, leaving the remaining minor troubles to be resolved by future generations.

The only difference is that Liu Che's descendants did not disappoint his expectations, while Ying Zheng was utterly disappointed.

"But as I said before, no one can deny Emperor Wu's achievements. Without him, without that phrase 'the balance of offense and defense changes,' the Han Dynasty might not have become the powerful Han that everyone talks about!"

"Moreover, those who say he is a warmonger, brave but reckless, have you forgotten the first great open strategy of all time?"

Zhao Kuangyin said quietly.

It can be said that from the time when the First Emperor swept across the six kingdoms and unified the country, to the later Chu-Han Contention where Liu Bang won the world, it still could not be considered a true unification.

Anyone who is not of the Liu clan and becomes king will be attacked by all under heaven. This was Liu Bang's White Horse Alliance.

But behind this alliance of white horses lies the birth of countless kings and nobles surnamed Liu.

In essence, it is not much different from the feudal system.

If we're really going to count, it wasn't until the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che, that the Han Dynasty truly achieved unification.

The true hero of this unification was this first open strategy in history!

"This……"

Old Zhu was speechless.

He was well aware of the significance of the imperial edict.

The greatest open scheme of all time, and it truly lives up to its name!

At that moment, words began to appear on the sky.

The tragic historical review will be placed after the list of wise rulers.

Liu Xiu, ranked sixth on the list of wise rulers, failed as challenger; rewards accumulated.

[Top Ten Wise Rulers in History]

Fifth: The seventh emperor of the Han Dynasty.

An existence that completely changed the border situation, an emperor who truly helped the Han Dynasty achieve unification!

Emperor Shizong of Han, Emperor Xiaowu, Liu Che!

You guessed right!

Seeing this result, Liu Bang couldn't help but feel a sense of pride.

The Liu family has been listed multiple times!

See that? That's how awesome your bloodline is!

In the list of the top ten wise rulers, three of them are from the Liu family!

Who can compare to this?

"Liu Heng, Liu Xiu, Liu Che, plus Emperor Gaozu of Han himself, this family is truly undeniable."

It's almost a certainty that members of the Liu family will occupy four spots on the list of the ten most enlightened rulers.

Who can compare to this?

When it comes to the probability of a dynasty producing a wise ruler, probably no one can compare to the Liu family.

Even Ying Zheng couldn't help but reveal a hint of envy in his eyes.

Those who can be listed on the list of wise rulers by the immortals can all be called emperors of all ages!

With so many wise rulers, if only one of them had been given to the Qin Dynasty, how could it have ended up perishing after only two generations?

"However, Emperor Wu of Han and Emperor Guangwu can be considered two extremes."

"One was skilled in military strategy, yet rarely mobilized troops after unification; the other was not good at military affairs, yet was called a warmonger by countless people."

Li Er said with a smile.

"But I just feel that he shouldn't be ranked before Emperor Guangwu, after all, there's a lot of controversy surrounding Emperor Guangwu."

Old Zhu muttered to himself.

Who can say for sure which is better or worse?

"Keep reading. After reading the immortal's evaluation of Emperor Wu of Han, most people should have their own opinions."

Zhao Kuangyin quietly watched the changes in the writing on the sky.

Starting from the fifth place, the words on the sky began to faintly glow with a golden light.

Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che, can be said to be the complete opposite of Liu Xiu.

Whether it's the evaluations of them in historical records or the opinions of later generations, these two individuals are a matter of debate.

If we say that Liu Xiu was a perfect emperor with almost no flaws, and therefore had a very low profile...

Liu Che was a terrifying figure, but his merits and demerits were almost equal throughout his life.

In his later years, he also became senile, and a witchcraft scandal nearly wiped out his entire clan.

Even though he rectified the situation in time and executed all the treacherous officials who framed the crown prince, it was still difficult to undo the damage.

The number of people who died in this calamity, including Crown Prince Liu Ju and Empress Wei Zifu, reached hundreds of thousands!

The scourge of witchcraft!

Upon seeing the immortal's initial assessment of him, Liu Che's face instantly darkened.
